REVIEW: KIKO Kiss Balm in Strawberry




When it comes to my everyday make up, I love nothing more than a moisturised, glossy lip with a hint of colour and there's one product in particular that has filled this need for me over these past couple of weeks. The KIKO Kiss Balm has a velvety soft texture that moisturises the lips and protects them against the damaging effects of the sun with SPF 15. Instantly, this balm sinks into the lips adding a hint of colour and gloss and a delicious taste that comforts the lips. 

The Kiss Balm is available in 7 gorgeous combinations so you're guaranteed to find a colour, taste and scent to suit your needs. I have the KIKO Kiss Balm in Strawberry* which as the name suggests, tastes and smells of strawberries - so yummy. The colour is a beautiful pink-red that looks intimidating in the bullet but beautiful and sophisticated on the lips. You can view the entire shade and aroma combinations here and I without a doubt have my eye on both the Apricot and Coconut versions - they look delicious!

I've fallen head over heels in love with this product and it's quickly become a summer staple of mine. It does everything that a lip balm should do - a wash of colour, instant moisture, beautiful gloss that isn't sticky and of course, SPF 15. This isn't the longest lasting product that you'll find for your lips as it is very moisturising but it means that you'll just have to apply it more - and when a product tastes this good, I'm not complaining! You can buy the Kiss Balms here where they retail for £5.90.
